that's the idea of raising the eligibility age for medicare. why isn't that something that might actually be a big first step? >> first of all it's very small amounts of money. congressional budget office put it at a little over $100 billion over ten years. that's trivial. it doesn't save very much money. 65- and 66-year-olds are young seniors so they don't cost a lot actually. they don't have the health problems. kicking them off the program doesn't save you very much money. it doesn't bend the cost curve. it makes almost no difference to the financial outlook but it's cruel. it's taking a lot of people who are counting on, able to have finally guaranteed insurance and kicking them out into we don't know whether obama care, how thoroughly it will be implemented. it's just it's it's exactly what i was saying. it sounds serious because it's hurting vulnerable people. if you actually look at the dollars and cents it's not serious at all. of course it will cost people much more. you're talking about saving for every dollar that the government says
